Say No To New News

Hi!

How long has it been? A month? Wow. I feel like such a slacker. Honestly, though, I've received nothing new in the questions department that I haven't been able to direct to an archived post and of course, I've been busy trying to build my writing career. No easy feat for us FibroMates!

I have received material from the media and medical communities about new pharms arriving on the shelves, new tests whispered in the underground etc. and I've also been asked why I haven't posted these things here when other websites and blogs have "Fibro News" everywhere, all day, every day.

I'm just going to answer simply: I'll leave the iffy news to the website and blog updaters who need daily material. I don't post daily. I post when a question arises or I have something from personal experience to share. So, for me, in regards the the latest and greatest breaking news... I like to hang back until more tests are done outside of the pharm companies OR until I try this new drug or herb or crazy rumor and then either tout it or smack it down.

With my silence on these new drugs or herbs etc, I do not intend to discredit early research. I simply need something with more than a 20-30% success rate with an error % around the same % as the success rate.

But this does NOT mean I am not hopeful in these newfangled shiny Fibro things! I am keeping my ear to the ground and will report any amazing finds I...well...find!

All my best to you my dearest friends! I apologize if you felt I abandoned you. I'm here!

Your blog posting philosophy is very similar to mine. In fact, I'm glad that a lot of the blogs I follow don't post daily because, frankly, I can't keep up on them that frequently. I catch up when time allows. You're busy, I'm busy - it works out better this way.

Anyway, I just wanted to reassure you and let you know I'm still here. I know it can get lonely when nobody comments on your blog for a while. :)

To clarify, I am not a doctor or nurse or nutritionist. I'm not selling any products or taking any donations. I simply have Fibro and a lot of knowledge gleaned by lots of research. Fibromyalgia is supposedly going to be with me until the day I die, so that is how long I will fight it.

The only rules of Fibro Fight Club are: No one will talk down to others and no one will rant about how much their life sucks. There are plenty of places to have self-pity moments (and we all get them!) but not here.
